This is a great, easy and inexpensive recipe. Who doesn’t like chicken? This Spice Rub Grilled Chicken is really tasty and juicy; your family will love it. The spice rub gives it the perfect taste, and it only takes minutes to prepare. Then you cook the chicken slowly on the grill, which makes it tender and juicy.
You can use this tasty spice rub for chicken drumsticks or a complete chicken; it will be just as delicious. You will have to modify the cooking time.

When I season chicken to bake in the oven I use everything but the cayenne pepper and the brown sugar. I rally want to add in that brown sugar next time it sounds delicious!

I love that combination – a little sweet and a little spicy. I wonder how it would workout on skinless chicken breasts – I will have to give it a try.
